To Play or Not To Play.

That is a question.
This relates to Jackpot games mostly and at the beginning of a jackpot cycle.
Well, in our opinion, you can Not Play the first 10 draws from the beginning of a Jackpot Cycle, absolutely.
It then varies depending on play cost how far out from the first 10 draws we'd Not Play; usually 6 times the play cost added to the 10 absolutely Not to Play.
So, for a game like our Gopher 5, that's $1.00 per play or 1 times 6, plus 10; that'd be 6 + 10, or 16 draws into the jackpot cycle Not to Play.
For PB or MM, that would be $2.00 per play or 2 times 6, plus 10; that'd be 12 + 10, or about 26 draws into the jackpot cycle Not to Play.
That let's all the Jackpot Junkies and Quick Pick Zombies build up the pot first.
Looks like it's working, the MM is way up there.
Topic came up at home as to when is a good time to buy tickets.
Just our take on it.
Good Luck.
